From Comfortable to Love
Chapter 13 - Forced
After a long journey, they finally arrived at the Hospital. Only this time Tania and mother Rohimah set foot here, because usually, they only seek treatment at the nearest Puskesmas. So is the danger of the villagers, who very rarely go to the Hospital. Especially the good distance.
***
Tania and Ms. Rohimah are waiting at the door of Ayu's room in the care. Rakha did not come, after dropping off Ayu's mom, he preferred to wait in the car. But I don't know, or maybe he's home, because he already knows Tania won't be back at his house.
"Patience, Nia. Just pray that your mother's okay." Ms. Rohimah calms.
"Yes, Miss lek." Answer Tania. Of course he won't be able to calm down until he gets an answer that his mother is fine.
Shortly after, a doctor came out of the room. Tania rushed over wanting to know her mother's condition.
"How's my mother doing, Doctor?" Tania just asked, hoping to get a comforting answer.
"Sister's mother had a tumor in her brain. And have to be in surgery soon." The doctor's answer that made Tania's leg immediately limp and not strong standing. He sat in the waiting chair, with Rohimah's mother trying to give him strength.
Tania was crying, her chest was tight. "Why don't I just take care of all this? Why should my mother, God?" Tania was angry at fate.
"Calm down, just pray that Mother Sister can be healed. We can do the surgery." The doctor calmed Tania down.
"If you are willing, you can immediately take care of your administration and determine the operating schedule." The doctor continued and then he excused himself from the presence of Tania and also Ms. Rohimah.
Mrs Rohimah was crying. He hugged Tania, rubbed the girl's back. "Patience, Nia."
"How can I pay the fee for Mom's operation, Miss Lek? As for eating, we were in trouble. Then should I also let my mother be in pain?" Tania's crying was breaking.
"Take the treasure that Bu Lek has, Nia. Not enough, but it's okay to add."
It's the weathered point in Tania's life. He really doesn't know what to do.
"Mom lek please take care of Mom," Tania got up from her seat.
"Where are you going, Nia? Outside again it's raining."
"I want to see Mr. Rakha, Miss Lek. I know, only he can help me."
Tania immediately rushed over, leaving Rohimah's mother heading to the parking lot. He hoped, Hopefully the employer is still in the parking lot and has not returned home. Tania doesn't care about her anymore, all she needs right now is money for her mother's operation.
"Master!" Tania banged on the car glass. He could see from behind Rakha's window the astonishment was staring at him.
"Hey! What the hell are you doing? You can get sick!" Shouted Rakha opening the glass of his car.
Tania did not care even though her body shivered in the cold, she still remained in her stance.
"Wear this!" Shouted Rakha sticking an umbrella at him. Tania accepted it, although it was not needed because her body was soaked.
Rakha opened the car door, then went down to stand under the umbrella that Tania had stretched out. Then he took the umbrella, and led Tania along in his footsteps.
They are not far from the Satpam Post
The narrow place made them now very close, barely far away.
"Why are you even raining? Just like a child!" Shouted Rakha. Tania just bowed.
"Mr ..." Lirih Tania, her mouth felt heavy to convey her intentions and goals.
"Tell me,"
"I'm willing to serve you, sir. But I, I want you to pay my mother's operating expenses." Tania's eyes started to glaze over. He thought, now he was no different from a prostitute, who sold himself for money.
Rakha. He may not believe what Tania said. But Rakha realized, Tania did all this for a reason. Tania remained down. Down shy. He felt he had no self-respect.
They were quiet long enough.
"Alright," Rakha said later.
Tania's crying spilled. I don't know if these are tears of joy or tears of sorrow.
"Thank you, sir." Said Tania with trembling lips. Inside his chest felt increasingly tight, but he had no other choice in this urgent situation.
